Silence based communication for sensor networks. Dhulipala, A., Fragouli, C., & Orlitsky, A. ISIT, 2006.
abstract   bibtex   
We consider a power-efficient communication model for wireless sensor networks where silence is used to convey information. We study the average-case and worst-case complexities of symmetric functions under this model and describe protocols that achieve them. For binary-input functions, we determine the average complexity. For ternary-input functions, we consider a special type of protocols and provide close lower and upper bounds for their worst-case complexity. We also describe the protocol that achieves the average complexity.
